Times-Advocate, 1978-11-09, Page 3Hensall sewers approved Members of Hensall coun­ cil learned on Monday that the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) approved the town’s application for storm sewers. The storm sewers, which will be east of the Canadian National Railway tracks, will be built by Omega Con­ tractors of London. Council passed a bylaw for the construction of the sewers at an estimated cost of $535,000 and the borrow­ ing of money by means of temporary advances and the .issuances of deventures for a sum not exceeding $300,- 000. Council also approved a bylaw authorizing an agree- •ment between the town of Hensall and the Ministry of Transportation and Com- ,,munications to cost share the storm sewer system from manhole 10 to the -sewer outlet to connect the proposed Hwy. #84 storm sewer into the village sewer at the intersection of Hwy. #84 and Wellington Street. The provincial govern­ ment is planning to reconstruct Hwy.#84 in the future and want to hook into the Hensall storm sewers. Fire routes Members of council also approved a bylaw designating certain streets in the village as fire routes and prohibiting parking on these streets. In the future, signs will be posted prohibiting parking on the north side of Oxford Street, from Brock Street, westerly 150 feet; on the south side of Oxford street, from Brock Street, westerly 450 feet; East side of Brock Street, from Oxford Street to Richmond Street south and the south side of Queen Street from Nelson Street, westerly 200 feet. Anyone parking on the designated fire routes in the future is subject to a fine of $10 or having their vehicle towed away and impounded. The only problem facing council is that they don’t have a bylaw enforcement officer presently on the town staff. Betty Oke, the town clerk, said someone could be authorized by the council to enforce the bylaw if it was found people were still park­ ing along the fire route. Council members also passed‘a procedural bylaw to govern future meetings of council. Under the bylaw, council will hold their inaugural meeting for the 1979-80 term on the second Monday of December at 7:30 p.m. Also, future meetings of council will be held on the second Monday night of each month at 7:30 p.m. Under the new bylaw, members of the public attending council meeting to present information verbal­ ly or make a request of council must notify the clerk 48 hours before the council meeting. This bylaw means in the future deputations can’t appear before council unan­ nounced. This clause allows council members and the clerk a chance to research issues which may be raised by a public delegation. Also under the bylaw, delegations of not more than five people will be limited to two speakers, and each speaker can speak no more than 10 minutes at a time. Clerk Betty Oke said a number of municipalities have been drawing up procedural bylaws recently to meet with requirements under the municioal act.

Seaforth trustee John Henderson told the board he felt the two field trips, one sending 40 Grade 7 and 8 students to Ottawa and the other sending 40 high school students to the Quebec Winter Carnival, were ex­ pensive undertakings. He said both trips will cost parents and asked if parents supported the trips or if they felt forced to oblige. The trip by the students from Turnberry Central School to Ottawa will cost $3,468 for two days and Henderson said it seemed like "a lot of money to send kids away for two days”. Students at Turnberry have financed the bulk of the costs themselves through draws, raffles and sales and according to school principal Paul Statia each will have to bring $20 for meals, treats and souvenirs. Statia said the fund raising by the students will pay for tran­ sportation, ' accommodation and tours. The Turnberry principal told the board in a letter that the fund raising was a good experience for the students. He said the students learned to handle money and were To the Editor, In response to your article of November 2 on the homemakers, I object to one statement, that “it is a source of employment for thousands of educationally disadvantaged men and women.” "For your information we are not “EDUCATIONALLY DISADVANTAGED.” Some of us are Registered Nursing Assistants and the rest take a homemaker course where they learn anatomy, nutrition and bed side care of both the elderly and the infant. I am sure your reporter has misunderstood or misquoted the administrator of the homemaking service and a correction is needed. questioned on a statement made by Industry Minister Jack Horner (that the government will be forced to raise interest rates) he said, “It’s a difficult choice whether to trust JDajiadian Press ■1 drt, to trust- / the honourable member”. .. I would suggest to Prime Minister Trudeau, in light of the way his Liberal govern­ ment has misled, conned, and outrightly deceived the people of this country in the past ten years, given a choice in a matter of trust between his government and any organization or in­ dividual, that the Liberal government would come out a clear second. Yours truly, Stuart Craine encouraged to co-operate with one another working toward a common goal. Henderson wasn’t all that ready to buy Statia’s claim that students raise money themselves and do not in­ volve parents. He pointed out that whether the parent pays the child’s way directly or buys raffle tickets and chocolate bars he is still paying the costs. The Seaforth trustee said the trip to Quebec planned by students at F. E. Madill Secondary School in Wingham was a better example of what he was concerned with. He said parents of Turnberry students will pay $20 for their child to go on that trip but the excursion to Quebec will cost parents about $110 a child. He pointed out that the Madill students raised no money for the trip but rather divided the costs among the students. Henderson said that parents feel obligated to send their children on the trips because they are promoted as educational for students. He added that the . ^ayentet.may alsprfeel some '“Sodiali :pressurento send the -child. He said he wondered if the parents “appreciated board approval”. Wingham trustee Jack Alexander asked the board’s administration if any student was ever unable to gon such trips because of lack of money. Superintendant Bob Allan said he had never heard of a student being denied the opportunity of going on the trip if the parents could not afford it. He said in some cases arrangements are made through service clubs to sponsor students whose families cannot afford the costs. Board chairman John Elliott said if parents were unhappy with board ap­ proval of field trips they are not making their feelings known to trustees. He said he had never heard a parent complaining about field trip, approvals.

Dear Sir: When Prime Minister Trudeau was being Attendance over 12,000 Attendance at the Lamb­ ton Heritage Museum is run­ ning at three times the pro­ jected level of 4,000 with two months left in the year, curator Bob Tremain reports. Tremain said 12,230 people have passed through the museum since it opened in May. He had expected only 4,000 in the first season because it was only half a year long with a lot of work not completed. Most visitors come from within the county and are not tourists, as was ex­ pected, he said. The reason for the high total is that the museum has worked on hav­ ing exhibits representing history from all parts of the country to create as wide an interest as possible, Tre­ main explained. The museum, which operates seven days a week, will remain open all winter. Tremain is hoping skiers and snowmobilers yisiting nearby Pinery provincial park will drop by for a visit. He said there should also be regular visits by schoolchildren in the area who will be able to integrate What they learn from the museum with their local history courses. A professional development day for county Grade Five teachers Will be held at the museum today to introduce them to the exhibits, Tre­ main added.
